I think last time we ran with you guys at Montpelier we weighed 1120 or so pounds with a 1000cc Kawasaki, we did pretty good. Racers tend to put too much importance on weigh>>cubic inches>>and posted Horsepower numbers. The big Kaw has a little more low end torque and power it would need to be driven that way. The 1000cc motors are cammy and need to be driven hard to keep the rpm's up. A lot to do with driving style. Sometimes a little extra weight is a good thing.

With the bigger bike motors you be working in uncharted waters. I would love it.
